1120. AI vs. Your BODY: What to Watch For & How It Can Backfire

Hey Heal Squad! In this Heal in 10 episode, Maria shares the mind-blowing results she experienced after just one session with her acupuncturist, and how learning the right acupressure points changed everything… Dr. Christopher Motley breaks down how symptoms like dry lips, tight calves, and even cracked heels are often signs of deeper imbalances in the spleen, bladder, and digestive system. Together, they explore how pressing simple points on the hand, back, or hips can offer immediate relief for constipation, back pain, and more. They also discuss how emotional patterns like worry and over-care can weaken key organ systems, and why small daily changes can create major shifts in your health. Let your body speak, you just need to listen!!

Happy Sunday, Heal Squad! On this Sunday Setup, we explore the real reason behind our habits—the ones we know aren’t serving us, but we keep circling back to anyway. We talk cravings, cycles, and the quiet patterns we fall into when something deeper is asking to be seen. Because whether it’s pizza, Diet Coke, gossip, or just keeping too busy, most habits aren’t random—they’re responses. We don’t need to be the hero to make an impact and how we’re still in the game, even when the scoreboard doesn’t make sense. This week, ask yourself not just what you’re doing—but why. Why do you reach for that thing? Why do you push yourself so hard? Why does that small moment still sit with you? You don’t need to fix it all today. Just notice. That’s where change begins. Sunday Setup BONUS: We talk Joey Chestnut in the Fourth of July hot dog eating contest.   -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! It’s Friday, and yes—we fooled them again. With an RGF that starts with Tiny Bubbles and somehow ends with Indiana Jones. Kev and Anne talk shame and how those buried feelings show up—autoimmune, hernia, heartbreak—and why healing starts with telling the truth: “I feel it.” “I see it.” “I’m letting it go.” We talk mindset medicine and how it starts with presence, compassion, and a whole lot less attachment. We talk why some people never get sick and others never get well. We talk how these simple changes led to a coffee shop meet-cute and why a bad cup might just reroute you to your next chapter.   Have a great weekend, bye betches.   -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! We’re continuing our theme this week of gut, brain, and emotional healing with this week’s throwback with triple board certified physician, Dr. Zach Bush! We knew this was the perfect time to bring back one of our favorite episodes to revisit this week.  Dr. Zach doesn’t just talk about symptoms, he gets to the real root of disease: disconnection. Disconnection from our bodies, our relationships, our food, our purpose, and even the Earth itself. He shares how trauma, toxins, gut health, and isolation all play a role in why we’re sick, PLUS how healing starts when we finally begin to reconnect on every level. Get ready to shift your perspective on health completely. We talk about the power of nature, the soul-body connection, and why your body isn’t broken (it’s just been overwhelmed). If you’re craving deeper healing and ready to get to the why behind what you're feeling… you don’t want to miss this one!  -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/zachbushmd/  Website: https://zachbushmd.com/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! In Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Dr. Christopher Motley, we’re diving deeper into the hidden wisdom of the body and the overlooked signals it’s constantly sending us. From ruptured ulcers linked to emotional stress to the healing power of acupressure and organ communication, this episode is packed with ancient practices and practical insights. Maria shares her own experiences using acupressure to relieve symptoms instantly, and Dr. Motley breaks down how organs like the spleen, liver, and bladder reveal dysfunction through symptoms like cracked heels, hip pain, constipation, and more.. PLUS, we explore how trauma is stored in your connective tissue (yup, emotional detox is real!), how environmental stressors like EMFs affect your ability to heal, and why supporting your thyroid, adrenals, and mitochondria is critical for long-term wellness. If you’ve been chasing symptoms and are ready to finally understand the root of your chronic health issues, tune in and take your healing into your own hands! HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Drainage before detox. If your lymphatic and fascia systems are congested, your body can’t eliminate toxins like mold, metals, or viruses, no matter how many supplements you take. True healing starts with clearing the exit pathways. Your organs are always listening. Both Dr. Motley and Maria share how speaking directly to their organs during prayer or meditation brought powerful healing shifts… showing the potential of organ communication in Chinese medicine. Acupressure delivers real-time results. From dry lips to back pain and even digestive issues, Maria shares firsthand how pressing specific points taught by her acupuncturist delivered instant relief (sometimes in just one session!) -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram Website Podcast Dr. Motley’s Protocols ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey Heal Squad! We’re kicking off a fascinating two-part episode with Dr. Christopher Motley, a leading expert in functional kinesiology and Chinese medicine. In Part 1, Dr. Motley opens up about his personal health journey with Lyme disease, and how becoming his own best case study led him to uncover the root causes of chronic illness through energy medicine and frequency healing. He breaks down the hidden reason so many people stay sick: blocked drainage pathways. From EMFs and heavy metals to trapped emotions and mold toxicity, Dr. Motley explains how these invisible stressors overload the body, disrupt your lymphatic system, and stall healing at the deepest level. We also dive into how trauma gets stored in your organs, what viruses like Epstein-Barr have to do with hormone issues and fatigue, and why your body’s Qi—your electromagnetic life force—could be the key to real, lasting transformation. If you’ve tried everything and still feel stuck, this episode will help you finally connect the dots and understand your symptoms in a whole new light. HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Drainage is the foundation of healing. Before you detox, your drainage pathways (like the lymphatic system and liver) need to be open. If they’re blocked, toxins can’t leave the body, and you stay stuck in survival mode. Your body holds emotional memories. Trapped emotions from past trauma can get stored in specific organs, silently contributing to chronic illness, hormone imbalance, and nervous system dysregulation. Mold and metals are hidden saboteurs. Many people with brain fog, fatigue, or mysterious symptoms are dealing with toxic overload from mold exposure or heavy metals—and most don’t even know it. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy’s Page: Shop My Macy’s Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Join the In-Person Heal Retreat: https://www.canyonranch.com/stay/events/heal-retreat-with-maria-menounos/?location=lenox  GUEST RESOURCES: Instagram Website Podcast Dr. Motley’s Protocols ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos’ passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Hey, Heal Squad! Maria’s back from her healing trip to the Dominican Republic—and she’s got a major update that could shift how you think about your health, your zip code… and even your morning coffee. In this week’s episode, Maria and Dr. Alison unpack the shocking truth about how your environment impacts everything from vitamin D production to autoimmunity. After spending months in Connecticut and time in the DR, Maria shares the wild health changes she noticed (including her blood sugar and energy levels) just from getting out of L.A.—plus, the return of a mystery throat symptom she now suspects was linked to air pollution. PLUS, Maria opens up about her emotional birthday moment with Athena, and how she’s redefining healing to include joy, play, and the power of being present with the people you love. This one is packed with lightbulb moments (pun intended).
